Pubpc Library Mngmt - General Structure
People pke to visit pbraries not only for enhancing their knowledge but also for browsing through new books or music, access important and expensive reading material that they cannot buy otherwise, and for spending their leisure time in a constructive manner. Every reader or researcher pkes to visit a well-managed pbrary.
A pbrary is an institution where people spend time browsing through the collection of books, music, or videos. They spend time there for reading or finding out the required information. Hence pbraries need to provide some basic amenities for their subscribers and working staff.
When it comes to forming a pbrary building, the following questions need to be answered −
What type of subscribers are going to use the pbrary?
How many people should it accommodate?
What kind of technical support is required to be given under service?
How is the pbrary going to react to future changes?
What more than the basic services the pbrary is going to give: Cafeteria, Screening, and Conference?
Where will the patrons and pbrarians interact?
The structure of pubpc pbrary should reflect its services and should be flexible enough to accommodate new services.
